What is a shot list? A shot list is the best way to organize your visual goals for your scenes. That said, there are an infinite amount of choices for different shots, and not all shot lists include the necessary information needed to get the intended visuals.
Our video uses our shot list creator to break down a shot list, and explain the purpose behind it so that you understand why you need to build a shot list for your scenes.
You’ll also learn about the basic types of camera shots, why you will want to choose specific shots, and how you can accurately label each shot during the creation of your shot list.
We also go over how your shot list can be used long before your scene is captured, as well as after the scene is already finished. How it can help everyone on your team including the editor, cinematographer, and especially the director.
When you finish this video, you will understand why shot lists are so valuable, and that building an effective shot list is one of the most important parts of the filmmaking process.
You can also create a free shot list using our shot list template at the end.
The end result: You will understand shot lists better than you did before, and be on your way to building your own professional shot list.

@TheThinkersBible Год назад

Great, great summary and overview of what a shotlist is, how it works and how to organize and use it. The floor plan is also very useful, I'd not heard of that before but it makes great sense. I'll use these for a documentary I've written that I'm filming starting today. A template would have been great but I can search for one of those. Thanks very much!

Man, I despise shot lists with a passion, but they are so crucial and essential for a smooth shooting day…

@joaopaulodasilva4899 Год назад

I'm a aspiring filmmaking. Do you think it's possible to communicate your view to your crew without a shot list? How do you do that?

@alexman378 Год назад

@@joaopaulodasilva4899 You mean if you yourself have the list, but haven’t shared it? It’s best if you can let the heads of each department know ahead of time. If you can’t, you need to be concise. For example, you tell your electricians how to light the set using terms like “I want a three point lighting here”, you get a stand in while the actor is preparing, and you use them to convey what you want the lighting to be. If you can also express what you want the scene to “feel” like, they could help. You tell your DP your camera movement, lens, and angle in as a matter of fact way as you can. Don’t overcomplicate it and don’t leave room for confusion. “We’re using this lens, for this frame, on this angle, and that’s your movement”. If you’ve spent some extra time to shoot some samples with your phone and some friends of how you want it to look, they’ll get the idea faster. If you want an example, check out what Damien Chazelle did with his La La Land opening, there’s a video on RU-vid of him filming it in his backyard with his phone. And you’ll have to let your sound person know where you’ll be moving so that they can understand how to keep away from the camera. Basically, if you haven’t told them, you need to know it extremely well yourself. There’s no time to waste, time flies on a set (faster than in any regular setting) and you need to show everyone that you know exactly what you’re doing. That’s how you command blind trust. If you leave room for doubt, you’ll see them hesitate, get frustrated and question your choices.

@joaopaulodasilva4899 Год назад

@@alexman378 I was assuming that you've already worked without a shot list because you said that you "despise them with a passion," so I was curious to know how did you do it. Whatever, your examples helped me much more than I was expecting. Thank you! Could you, please, explain if shot list is the same as shooting script? Furthermore, what is the purpose of a floor plan and when should a director use one?

@Ahab3039 11 месяцев назад

My biggest apprehension about writing a screenplay is my lack of knowledge of shots. I'll continue to learn through movies but I need like a website or book or video to get the gist on a lot of shots. Someone should make a Playlist with different shots from movies.

@dareckmaurice9435 4 года назад

Am I missing something but how do you record the number of takes for each scene?

@joaopaulodasilva4899 Год назад

The shot list is a pre-production document, so directors can share their view to their crew. Recording the number of takes is the job of the Script Supervisor, and it should be done during the shooting.

@Shaunayboi 5 лет назад

I'm working as a DOP on a short film and the director has asked me to create the entire shotlist. I explained to her that shotlists aren't really my forte and she replies that unfortunately that's just the DOP's job. I find this hard to believe as it is my understanding that the director creates the shot list, including what is explained in this video.

@alexman378 2 года назад

It has been a while since you commented, but for others seeing this, yes, the shot list is the Director’s job. The DP is there to realize the shot list on screen, and can make suggestions, but the only times you let the DPs take on the shot lists entirely would be if you had someone like Roger Deakins on set. In my experience as Director and DP, whenever a Director hands the DP the creation of the shot list is because they’re too lazy to do it themselves. Which I get, they’re tedious, but they have to be done.

@305kubrick 2 года назад

It is the directors job. In my early naive days as a cinematographer, I was told to create a shot list for an ENTIRE FEATURE FILM. I spent alot of days doing the shot list and guess what, THEY NEVER REFERRED TO A SINGLE SHOT ON MY LIST. I vowed to never do it again. Creating a shot list means having to think like a director which is THE JOB OF THE DIRECTOR.

@des1279 Год назад

@@305kubrick Oooooh my blood would be BOILING if that happened to me! Dang that sucks I'm so sorry that happened, it truly is a tedious thing so to do the entire feature film and then have them not use it is such a slap in the face :(

@joaopaulodasilva4899 Год назад

Thank you for sharing. I'm a wannabe filmmaking who don't understand a lot about lenses (I'm studying). Do you think it's acceptable if I bring the DoP to help me in the shot list in the things I have difficulties? I heard that when Sam Mendes debuted with American Beauty, he was a theater director who didn't know much of photography.

@TonyRush21 Год назад

Has anyone ever told you that you look like Chris Evans who plays Captain America in the MCU??

@305kubrick 2 года назад

NOTE: It is the DIRECTOR'S JOB TO CREATE THE SHOT LIST, NOT THE DP. The dp should collaborate with the director once the director has the shot list done. It is staggering to see how many producers believe it's the DP's job. IT IS NOT.

@Sam..veganos Год назад

Ya it's correct because i have worked in a film competition under senior director and Ya with managing and guiding the whole production piple line the whole movie works under the creativity knowledge ,and concepts of film directors .the whole crew are just like working puppets commanded by the director.

@joaopaulodasilva4899 Год назад

Thank you for sharing. I'm a aspiring filmmaking who don't know much about lenses. Do you think I can ask my DP to help me defining which opticals to use?
